<h2>Detailed Description</h2>
<p>The QFileDialog class provides a dialog that allow users to select files or directories.</p>
<p>The QFileDialog class enables a user to traverse the file system in order to select one or many files or a directory.</p>
<p>The easiest way to create a QFileDialog is to use the static functions. On Windows, Mac OS X, KDE and GNOME, these static functions will call the native file dialog when possible.</p>
<pre> fileName = QFileDialog::getOpenFileName(this,
tr("Open Image"), "/home/jana", tr("Image Files (*.png *.jpg *.bmp)"));</pre>
<p>In the above example, a modal QFileDialog is created using a static function. The dialog initially displays the contents of the "/home/jana" directory, and displays files matching the patterns given in the string "Image Files (*.png *.jpg *.bmp)". The parent of the file dialog is set to <i>this</i>, and the window title is set to "Open Image".</p>
<p>If you want to use multiple filters, separate each one with <i>two</i> semicolons. For example:</p>
<pre> "Images (*.png *.xpm *.jpg);;Text files (*.txt);;XML files (*.xml)"</pre>
<p>You can create your own QFileDialog without using the static functions. By calling <a href="qfiledialog.html#fileMode-prop">setFileMode</a>(), you can specify what the user must select in the dialog:</p>
<pre> QFileDialog dialog(this);
dialog.setFileMode(QFileDialog::AnyFile);</pre>
<p>In the above example, the mode of the file dialog is set to <a href="qfiledialog.html#FileMode-enum">AnyFile</a>, meaning that the user can select any file, or even specify a file that doesn't exist. This mode is useful for creating a "Save As" file dialog. Use <a href="qfiledialog.html#FileMode-enum">ExistingFile</a> if the user must select an existing file, or <a href="qfiledialog.html#FileMode-enum">Directory</a> if only a directory may be selected. See the <a href="qfiledialog.html#FileMode-enum">QFileDialog::FileMode</a> enum for the complete list of modes.</p>
<p>The <a href="qfiledialog.html#fileMode-prop">fileMode</a> property contains the mode of operation for the dialog; this indicates what types of objects the user is expected to select. Use <a href="qfiledialog.html#setNameFilter">setNameFilter</a>() to set the dialog's file filter. For example:</p>
<pre> dialog.setNameFilter(tr("Images (*.png *.xpm *.jpg)"));</pre>
<p>In the above example, the filter is set to <tt>"Images (*.png *.xpm *.jpg)"</tt>, this means that only files with the extension <tt>png</tt>, <tt>xpm</tt>, or <tt>jpg</tt> will be shown in the QFileDialog. You can apply several filters by using <a href="qfiledialog.html#setNameFilters">setNameFilters</a>(). Use <a href="qfiledialog.html#selectNameFilter">selectNameFilter</a>() to select one of the filters you've given as the file dialog's default filter.</p>
<p>The file dialog has two view modes: <a href="qfiledialog.html#ViewMode-enum">List</a> and <a href="qfiledialog.html#ViewMode-enum">Detail</a>. <a href="qfiledialog.html#ViewMode-enum">List</a> presents the contents of the current directory as a list of file and directory names. <a href="qfiledialog.html#ViewMode-enum">Detail</a> also displays a list of file and directory names, but provides additional information alongside each name, such as the file size and modification date. Set the mode with <a href="qfiledialog.html#viewMode-prop">setViewMode</a>():</p>
<pre> dialog.setViewMode(QFileDialog::Detail);</pre>
<p>The last important function you will need to use when creating your own file dialog is <a href="qfiledialog.html#selectedFiles">selectedFiles</a>().</p>
<pre> QStringList fileNames;
if (dialog.exec())
fileNames = dialog.selectedFiles();</pre>
<p>In the above example, a modal file dialog is created and shown. If the user clicked OK, the file they selected is put in <tt>fileName</tt>.</p>

<pre> QString dir = QFileDialog::getExistingDirectory(this, tr("Open Directory"),
"/home",
QFileDialog::ShowDirsOnly
| QFileDialog::DontResolveSymlinks);</pre>
<p>This function creates a modal file dialog with the given <i>parent</i> widget. If <i>parent</i> is not 0, the dialog will be shown centered over the parent widget.</p>
<p>The dialog's working directory is set to <i>dir</i>, and the caption is set to <i>caption</i>. Either of these may be an empty string in which case the current directory and a default caption will be used respectively.</p>
<p>The <i>options</i> argument holds various options about how to run the dialog, see the <a href="qfiledialog.html#Option-enum">QFileDialog::Option</a> enum for more information on the flags you can pass. To ensure a native file dialog, <a href="qfiledialog.html#Option-enum">ShowDirsOnly</a> must be set.</p>

<p>On Unix/X11, the normal behavior of the file dialog is to resolve and follow symlinks. For example, if <tt>/usr/tmp</tt> is a symlink to <tt>/var/tmp</tt>, the file dialog will change to <tt>/var/tmp</tt> after entering <tt>/usr/tmp</tt>. If <i>options</i> includes <a href="qfiledialog.html#Option-enum">DontResolveSymlinks</a>, the file dialog will treat symlinks as regular directories.</p>
<p>On Windows the dialog will spin a blocking modal event loop that will not dispatch any QTimers, and if <i>parent</i> is not 0 then it will position the dialog just below the parent's title bar.</p>
<p><b>Warning:</b> Do not delete <i>parent</i> during the execution of the dialog. If you want to do this, you should create the dialog yourself using one of the <a href="qfiledialog.html">QFileDialog</a> constructors.</p>

<p>The file dialog's working directory will be set to <i>dir</i>. If <i>dir</i> includes a file name, the file will be selected. Only files that match the given <i>filter</i> are shown.

<p>This is a convenience static function that will return one or more existing files selected by the user.</p>
<pre> QStringList files = QFileDialog::getOpenFileNames(
this,
"Select one or more files to open",
"/home",
"Images (*.png *.xpm *.jpg)");</pre>
<p>This function creates a modal file dialog with the given <i>parent</i> widget. If <i>parent</i> is not 0, the dialog will be shown centered over the parent widget.</p>
<p>The file dialog's working directory will be set to <i>dir</i>. If <i>dir</i> includes a file name, the file will be selected. The filter is set to <i>filter</i> so that only those files which match the filter are shown. The filter selected is set to <i>selectedFilter</i>. The parameters <i>dir</i>, <i>selectedFilter</i> and <i>filter</i> may be empty strings. If you need multiple filters, separate them with ';;', for instance:</p>
<pre> "Images (*.png *.xpm *.jpg);;Text files (*.txt);;XML files (*.xml)"</pre>
<p>The dialog's caption is set to <i>caption</i>. If <i>caption</i> is not specified then a default caption will be used.</p>
<p>On Windows and Mac OS X, this static function will use the native file dialog and not a <a href="qfiledialog.html">QFileDialog</a>.</p>
<p>On Windows the dialog will spin a blocking modal event loop that will not dispatch any QTimers, and if <i>parent</i> is not 0 then it will position the dialog just below the parent's title bar.</p>
<p>On Unix/X11, the normal behavior of the file dialog is to resolve and follow symlinks. For example, if <tt>/usr/tmp</tt> is a symlink to <tt>/var/tmp</tt>, the file dialog will change to <tt>/var/tmp</tt> after entering <tt>/usr/tmp</tt>. The <i>options</i> argument holds various options about how to run the dialog, see the <a href="qfiledialog.html#Option-enum">QFileDialog::Option</a> enum for more information on the flags you can pass.</p>
<p><b>Note:</b> If you want to iterate over the list of files, you should iterate over a copy. For example:</p>
<pre> QStringList list = files;
QStringList::Iterator it = list.begin();
while(it != list.end()) {
myProcessing(*it);
++it;
}</pre>
<p><b>Warning:</b> Do not delete <i>parent</i> during the execution of the dialog. If you want to do this, you should create the dialog yourself using one of the <a href="qfiledialog.html">QFileDialog</a> constructors.</p>

<p>This is a convenience static function that will return a file name selected by the user. The file does not have to exist.</p>
<p>It creates a modal file dialog with the given <i>parent</i> widget. If <i>parent</i> is not 0, the dialog will be shown centered over the parent widget.</p>
<pre> QString fileName = QFileDialog::getSaveFileName(this, tr("Save File"),
"/home/jana/untitled.png",
tr("Images (*.png *.xpm *.jpg)"));</pre>
<p>The file dialog's working directory will be set to <i>dir</i>. If <i>dir</i> includes a file name, the file will be selected. Only files that match the <i>filter</i> are shown. The filter selected is set to <i>selectedFilter</i>. The parameters <i>dir</i>, <i>selectedFilter</i>, and <i>filter</i> may be empty strings. Multiple filters are separated with ';;'. For instance:</p>
<pre> "Images (*.png *.xpm *.jpg);;Text files (*.txt);;XML files (*.xml)"</pre>
<p>The <i>options</i> argument holds various options about how to run the dialog, see the <a href="qfiledialog.html#Option-enum">QFileDialog::Option</a> enum for more information on the flags you can pass.</p>
<p>The default filter can be chosen by setting <i>selectedFilter</i> to the desired value.</p>
<p>The dialog's caption is set to <i>caption</i>. If <i>caption</i> is not specified, a default caption will be used.</p>
<p>On Windows and Mac OS X, this static function will use the native file dialog and not a <a href="qfiledialog.html">QFileDialog</a>.</p>
<p>On Windows the dialog will spin a blocking modal event loop that will not dispatch any QTimers, and if <i>parent</i> is not 0 then it will position the dialog just below the parent's title bar. On Mac OS X, with its native file dialog, the filter argument is ignored.</p>
<p>On Unix/X11, the normal behavior of the file dialog is to resolve and follow symlinks. For example, if <tt>/usr/tmp</tt> is a symlink to <tt>/var/tmp</tt>, the file dialog will change to <tt>/var/tmp</tt> after entering <tt>/usr/tmp</tt>. If <i>options</i> includes <a href="qfiledialog.html#Option-enum">DontResolveSymlinks</a> the file dialog will treat symlinks as regular directories.</p>
